Letter from the President
Happy New Year!  The start of a new year is often a time that we make resolutions and commitments to help improve our health and well being, and triathletes are no different in that respect.  To try and help the team out, we've got several events lined up in the winter months to try and help kick-start your year and keep you on track for race season (it's right around the corner!)
 
In January we've got a CrossFit workout, Indoor Triathlon Brick Workout, and a Swim Clinic lined up.  Email invitations for the Indoor Brick and Swim Clinic have been sent out, so if you're interested in those and haven't seen the email, let me know.  In February we'll be having another CrossFit workout and Indoor Brick workout, and possibly some other things too.  Pete has also been hosting regular HIIT bike workouts, and the Monday social run is still going on too.  So there are plenty of opportunities to get out there and get the year started right!
 
The website has also been updated with a few important things.  First, the 2017 TTT Race Series has been put up, with the first race right around the corner in early March.  We've also put up several destination races that we've got TTT members signing up for, so if you're interested in doing some traveling, check those out for options.  And last, the TTT Race Series points rules have been changed, so if you're planning to participate in the race series you may want to check that out and see what's new!

Joining us at our January team meeting will be Clif Duhon from Breakthrough Nutrition.  His talk will focus on basic nutrition as it pertains to endurance athletes.  We will look at proper ratios of carbs, fats, and proteins and how they relate to performance, fat loss,  and recover and how each is dependent upon training volume and training load, and discuss the role of supplementation in optimal performance.  We will also have a Q&A to discuss various topics not covered in the talk.
